Coupon Go-To Websites

Let's face it! The internet is a student's life. If you're anything like me, you spend hours a day on the web. Why not spend it saving money?

College students do not have a lot of free time. Most of us have a full course load, a job of some sort, organizations, and social commitments. That's why couponing websites are a life saver! Soon, I will post tips that are specifically for students. But, there are a lot of general rules! I will post my own Couponing 101, but I wanted to let all of you see the sites I use! I will also post the pros and cons of each!

 

Website Name	Southern Savers	Cuckoo for Coupons	Bargain Briana	Deal Seeking Mom	Money Saving Mom
Stores Offered	A lot of local stores, however you have to click local and it will take you to a listing in her blog and you'll have to scroll down to find the store you are looking for	A LOT of stores! Go to the top and it is listed in a drop down menu at the top	Has stores listed by category (grocery, drug, and superstore) at the top in a drop down. Does have all the main stores.	Good bit of stores. However, I don't see as many stores that are in the South.	Does have the larger stores available from the home page. Then when you click show the regional stores another page will come up. She probably has the most stores I've seen.
Print Options	Gives a list of what they feel to be the best deals for all the stores for you to print. Also allows you to print by store and with or without matchups and select just the ones you want.	Allows you to print just the matchups you want and will even turn it into a pdf format! Highlights what she feels to be the best deals	Since she has so many stores most are compiled from other sites. She gives the link of the original post and you can print from there	She does a coupon match-up with the store deals but you can only print them using a normal print function	Since she has so many stores most are compiled from other sites. She gives the link of the original post and you can print from there
Links to Coupons	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes
Has a learn to Coupon section	Yes, the best to print for your reference.	Yes, really great	Yes but limited to lingo and general	Has a FAQ and section but no clear coupon tutorial	Doesn't have her own but has a Start Here section that has all the best I've seen of learn by sites!
Easy to Navigate Site (1-10, 10 being the easiest and best looking)	10	9	9	6	9

 

 

In conclusion, I use ALL the sites above. I do prefer southern savers and cuckoo for coupon, but even I'm not sure why. They are all great sites. If you can not wait to coupon go ahead and look at their coupon tutorials and get started! As time goes by I will be posting my own learning guides and I'm going to make them specific to students!!

 

The next post will be a general post on where to go for printable coupons!

 

XOXO,
